Hello from MAKE and thanks for the love! The Super Matte Lip Pencil is only currently available in the United States, but you can also purchase it through MAKE’s retailer Barneys New York as well (perhaps they’ll ship it if you call them).

I thought it was to be applied BEFORE the lipstick. I was excited for a minute but it’s just too messy having to put it afterwards. But I suppose by now they are already working on it since things go so fast in the beauty industry.

I have, have, HAVE to use matte eyeshadow. It is surprisingly hard to find. As one ages (ahem!), eyeshadow with even the smallest bit of shine really shows up every little line and crease. Conversely, my poor, dry lips don’t react well with matte lipsticks, and I don’t like the way it feels. For those that can pull if off, it’s a beautiful look.
